1 too State ..VOLUME XXX. COLUMBUS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 15. 1840. NUMBER 64. FRIDAY, JULY 10, 1840. POLITICAL DISCUSSION. On Wednesday last, the cilizeng of this county had the hih gratification of listening to a discussion (if the leading measure and policy of the administration, between two of the must distinguished orators of Ohio. Mr. CoBwm. lh Whig candidate fur Gov. ernour, on the side of the People; and Mr. IIamib, a lain prominent member of Congress, talc inn up the defence of the Administration. Mr. Corwin opened tho debate, having been limited by arrangement to one hour and a half. Mr. llamer followed, having two hours allotted to him: Mr. Corwin closing in a speech of half an hour in length. This was the order of debate, and the allotted lime was most scrupulously observed by both gentlemen. The discussion took place in the market-house, and was listened to by a large audience with manifest signs of high gratification.It is not in our power to do justice to the opening speech of Mr. Corwin. It was one of those clear, logical, and manly appeals, which go home to the understanding and satisfy the judgment. With that caso and trace of elocution for which Mr. Corwin is so justly famed, he traced the course of the administration in its various windings, with a pencil of light. He made clear to tho apprehension, the effects of the changing experiments which had been tried, subjecting the country to unnatural influences, and interrupting the ordinary operations of the government, in the vain hope, as the result had shown, of producing consistency of result, where there was no wisdom in conception. Mr. Corwin, in this portion of his remarks, happily illustrated the character of our government and the nature of our institutions, defining the powers of the different branches and their relative connexion. Uncharged home upon the administra tion the present embarrassed condition of the country, and demonstrated his assumptions by familiar references to official documents. Ho dwelt upon the ex. pantion of the currency, induced by the orders of the President and his Secretary of the Treasury to the Drposilc Banks: He fixed upon the friends of the administration the great increase of the State Banks, jndcr the mistaken policy which followed the war on the United States Bank: He quoted the official do nunciations of ihe Sub-Treasury, both by Gen. Jack. son and Ihe official organ, when it was first broached in Congress, as being of a tendency dangerous in the extreme, subjecting the moneyed power of the country to the unlimited control of Ihe Executive: He then cited the final adoption of this very scheme, by the present Executive, on the high authority or twenty, three European governments, embracing in the number the most iron despotisms of Europe and Asia: Mr. Corwin dwelt upon the disregard manifested for the popular will by Mr. Van Buren, in Ins pertina- cious adherence to this measure, after it had been three times cast out by the representatlvea of Ihe people, as a thing unparalleled even in the history of monarchies, and aa showing the rapid concentration of all power in Ihe hands of the Executive, to the manifest danger of the State sovereignties and all independent legislation. He spoke of Ihe Bankrupt bill, and of the unnatural feature attempted to be engrafted upon it by Ihe friend of Ihe administration: And closed hit remarks by a hasty view of the Stand-in? Army project; leaving his friends nothing further to desire on the topics which his limited lime enabled him to grapple. - Mr. llamer rose, evidently embarrassed at the Herculean task he had undertaken that of defending the National Administration, against the numerous sins which his opponent had laid at its door. But, with the skill of a praciiced debater, he contrived toon to shift his ground, and instead of defending Ihe Administration, hit most anxious desire seemed lo be to ascertain what the opposition proposed to substitute fur the monstrous abuses which had been perpetrated ! Mr. II. abandoned the defence of the National Ad-niiuistialion, and turned his attention to the Stale Administration. He asked, and with great apparent sincerity, " what public act of Governor Shannon's is there that renders it proper lo turn him out1" This was unkind in the extreme, to our " Bank Reform" Governour, and well was it that lime was not allowed to reply. Had Mr. II. asked what public act of Ihe ' Governour'a rendered it proper to keep him in office, he would have found a torry array of negative answers. 'Tis true, there would have been the 400,000 dollars State loan, which he says he did get, but which Ihe "Democratic" Fund Commissioner says he did not get, and which every one understands he could mil have meddled with, without a violation of all the laws on the subject. There, too, it 11 Bank Iteform," which he had undertaken, but which had degenerated into the resurrection of two or three old expired charters flooding the country with their issues, coupled with post-notes of Ihe State Banks, mixed up with that choice specimen of " Bank Reform" financiering, the Binghampton Post Notes ! ! The descent from this point in Mr II. 's remarks, to the common slang of the day about Banks and corporations, was easy and natural. He admitted the adoption and encouragement of the State Bank system by the Administration, but charged its failure to the Opposition. He laid It had been ridiculed by ihe Whig! in Congress, and pronounced insufficient for Ihe purposes of Govern merit. Its failure had been predicted. Mr. Clay, he laid, had likened the Depusile Banks to a parcel of bark-canoet, lashed together with grape-vines and floating down stream, which would go lo pieces by the natural action of Ihe current. And, laid Mr, II., tho system has failed, and now Ihe Opposition are Ihe friends of Banks, and endeavor lo sustain them against the just indignaiinn of the public, for the want of faith to Iheir oreditort and the Government ! This is I fair specimen of the texture of Mr. Ha- mcr's arguments. Bui what better could ho dot-Have not ordert been issued from Washington to abandon the defence of the Administration, and make a charge along the wholu Whig line, with a view of putting the Harrison boys on thu defensive 1 We took no notes of w hat was said by cither uf the speakers, and will nut attempt to follow Ihein thruugh Ihe whole course of their remarks. We taw Ihe Editor of the Statesman, with paper in hand, taking notes, and we presume the public will be favored wiih the benefit of his labours. It it but justice, however, to Mr. llamer, to tiy, that, considering the awkward position which an Ingenuous mind mutt always find Itself in, from Ihe nature of Ihe questions before the public Ihe shift. lug ground Which Ihe Administration hat occupied, huving been on all sides of every prominent question, and from ihe kind of defence which the orders from Washington will permit of, ho made tho best of his material, manoeuvring his a!cnder hailaliuii with com mendable prudence and skill, keeping off at to long snot that it was hard to till whether he meant lo cn gage in the fight or not. His remarks were neither a reply, nor a defence, but a repetition of the old and exploded arguments about Dink and corporations. Let one instance suffice : He said the pecuniary difficulties of the country were chargeable to the Banks, which had increased to the fearful number of nine hundred, nny, nearly a thousand, flooding the country with their irredeemable issues, and oppressing the people, lowering and depressing the prices cf produce, hy their artificial contractions and expansions ! Ni w, admitting the argument, what are the facts ? Why, that in 1830, when this currency tinkering commenced, there were in Ihe whole Uniied States, but THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY BANKS. And by whom has this wonderful Increase been produced 1 By the friends of the Administration by State Legis latures purely of the Locofoco faith, from Maine to Mississippi ! The argument proves too much for the gentleman, and we leave the party lo reconcile it as best they may. It will need looking to. Wo cannot close this hasty notice, without pulling on record an avowal of Mr. Hamer's, deliberately made and repeated with much emphasis, which teemed to shock the assembly, as being too monstrous for utterance as revolutionary in its tendency, and as striking at Ihe very foundation of ihe social compact. It was Ibis : That Legislative bodies have Ihe right to repeal am. Laws! The courts, saiil Mr. H., may in-lorpose to prevent the assertion of this right ; hut it was an inherent right, and would be asserted : And if it could not be carried out in any other way, the Courti themselves would he reformed, and taught their duty to THE POPULAR WILL!! When we slate that Mr. H. is a lawyer of some eminence that Ihe District Court of the United Slatei it now in session in this city, and that most of the bar in attendance on its sittings, and many of the officers of Ihe Court were among his auditors, Ihe shock which this announcement produced may be imagined, but cannot be described. The short time allowed Mr. Corwin for a reply, was used to prodigious effect. He rolled back Ihe bold assumptions of this champion of jacobinism with Ihe strength of a giant, tearing the flimsy covering that had been spread over Ihe rolten carcass of Executive as-sumptions, into a thousand rags, end giving them to Ihe w inds. The eager attention of the multitude was oppressive ; and when he closed, in the midst of a headlong charge on the slender defences thrown up hy hit adversary, the vhont of approbation went up from Ihe assembly, indicative of the grateful feelings which prevailed. There are several points in the argument of Mr. llamer, which we intend hereafter to touch upon. We have said enough to give our readers a general view of the arguments of both gentlemen in the debate. We hope these discussions may be continued, and we trust that the convenience of Gov. Shannon will enable lii in to throw his weight into the scale, and meet the People's Candidate in open, full discussion, of " Bank Reform" and its kindred dogmas of that school in politics. "HARRISON THE SEDUCER." Hal we before doubted the debased condition of the administration press, the last Ohio Statesman would have convinced us that tliers was no lower depth lo which it could be sunk. In an article under ihe heading which we have quoted, the editor of that paper has revived an old exploded Blander uf 1823, in which General Harrison it represented as a seducer of a young and unprotected fi malt ! The charge it self require! not a moment's serious consideration, when the object of reviving it is considered. It de- rivet all ill importance from the audacious boldness with which it is brought forward, at the present time, lo prop the waning fortunes of a sinking party, whose longer claim to confidence and toleration seems to de pend on being enabled to reduce to iheir own debased standard, those who stand between them and Ihe ob. jecls of their wicked ambition. The story here revived was trumped up in 1825, to aniwer a political purpose, to defeat, if our recollec tion lervet us aright, Ihe election of Gen. Harrison lo Ihe Senate of the United Slates. It failed of hi ob ject then, for nobody believed it none gavs it heed, and it died away amongst those most interested, hit own neighbours and townsmen, to be brought forward now, for the same unholy and infamous object which prompted its coinage then, by (lie editor of a paper challenging at the hands of hit fcllowi the common decencies of life, ond claiming fur himself and his family the piolection of those lawt which society throws around the domestio hearth! Language it too cold to give utterance to ihe detestation and horrour which every honorable mind must feel at such low depravity at it here manifested. It is true, tho young lady whose disgrace is again blazoned to the world, was seduced but nobody gave credence to ihe ttory which implicated the honor of Gen. Hani-son. It is true thai the name of the brother of the young lady was affixed to the published card, in order lo give body lo a slander before the public, which had been secretly used to effect Gen. H.'t destruction but nn ono tuspected young Bruwcr of either having wrillon or devisod Ihe foul publication; he was seldom in a condition lo do either. It passed away then as a wicked and malicious slander, to be revived now to serve the leaders of a parly, who, to usa the language applied lo another set of men by the lamented Clinton, "would rather reign in hell, than serve in heaven." Wa leave our opponenta Ihe use of such weapons, and bid them welcome lo the poor advantage which Ihey will derivo from traducing ihe good and virtuous, the noble and brave of the land. Wa have higher aims in view than to dispute with them Ihe palm of victory in tuch an ignoble crusade, when success would be a moral death, and defeat, banishment from ihe pale of decent society. The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Patriot writes "I can assure you, and I would not do so hut from personal knowledge, that Ihe friend) of Mr. Van Buren have given up all hope of his election. I care not a fig for iheir talk I speak of iheir real feelings and opinions, They have given him up, and the wailcrt on Providence are sedulously wooing the opposition," J7" The Crop.

TIIK $100,000 STATE LOAN. Much has been said by the Governour'l friends about Ihe part hich he took in procuring the recent oan In New-York. The Governour himself has turn ed Dlovlan, and if he has not been most shamefully belied, has boasted in public of the pari he took in tho negoiiaiion claiming that it was through his In-slrumentalityalonetliat the loan was perfected, and thai lie could have borrowed much more money with which lo prosecute the public improvements, if Gen, Mao cracken had not written letter! to New-York, throw ing obstarles in the way and seriously afTccting the credit of the State. These stories have been often repealed, and have spread over lbs whole State, sometimes assuming one form, and sometimes ano ther one party asserting that Ihe Governour has the letters, and another that Mr. Commissioner Lake has them; all claiming that they were monstrous, and fully sustaining the charges that have been made against the resigning Fund Commissioners. The object of these slanders could not be mistaken. Wo therefore applied lo the proper source, and have obtained copies of two letters, being the only letters which Gen. Maccrackcn hat written on the subject, which letters are considered public documents, and may bo found on filo in the Fund Commissioners' Office, in this city: Fund Commissiojiicrs' OrricE,7 Lancaster, April 20A, 1810. i Messrs, Babino, Buothkks & Co.

The mention of Col. Kilgore's resigns, tion, was by particular desire of thai gentleman. Thus falls to the ground another prop in the Cover nour's glorification story. We hope now it will suit the convenience of the partiei interested to tell the public all about Ibis 400,000 dollar loan, not forgetting the Binghampton Hank Post .Voles! HARRISON SONGS. Every thing seems to be vocal with the praises of Tippecanoe, The llurriton Voir says, we heard i la- dy lay a few evenings since, that the very birds of the air would soon bs singing Harrison songs. Very like ly, for their songs, even now, are the aspirations of liberty and gladness, except that of the solitary locofoco, which comet forth only at night, screaming mip-paur-nill. The editor of the Claremonl (N. H.) Eagle, goea even beyond this. Ho not only subscribes to tht above, but he actually gives the long nf one of these birds of liberty, Bob Link, who, like the " bipeds without feathers," will be heard in spile of the political grimal kins of the day.

Last evening, the Lncufocns held boisterous meeting In this ssine Conrt-llouse, would ask Mr. PulT, the Marshall, whether the carpelt were taken up for the occasion, or whether they were kept down because "several gentlemen nf distinction' were lo address the meeting! If the latter, I hope Ihe Marshal will lose no lime in running a parallel between the two rases, that of refusing it lo the Whigs, ind letting it lo Ihe Locos, nnd make ihe result known for the benefit of an inquiring public, BOUNDARY LINE i"U.

We find in the Somerset Post, Perry county, of the 3d ins!,, a letter lo Ihe Editor from Isaac Dbi.ono, Esq., Post-Master at Rehoboth, giving the reasons why lie would not serve as onn of Amos Kendall's se cret conimiltco fur obtaining subscribers lo the Extra Globe, On receiving cunning Ainos't teller, where- n ho promises that " the true-hearted men who may aid him in reaching tho minds of an honest people, Juill have no cause to repent their exertions," Mr, Dc-ong handed the prospectus enclosed to a Dr. Jack- ion, a Van Huron man, and a personal friend of Mr. D. s. rim worthy Doctor undertook to act as agent for honest Amos, and wrote an abusivo letter, impeaching tho Post-Master's conduct. Tho loiter was lost in the street, with five dollar! enclosed, and subsequently fell into Ihe Post-Master's hands. The money was returned, but the letter h is been published, as a specimen of the secret means now using lo overawe the public mind. Mr. Delong very properly tells hem all to go to the bugs, and he will " trust to Ihe pa triotism of his countrymen," to restore .Ihings to order, so that " liberty, manly dignity, confidence and prosperity, will again be brought back to our American paradise, by the great, tho good, the wise, the bravo Harrisox !

Mr. Chapman Levy, another candidate for elector, hat now withdrawn equivalent lo three refusals to labor in a hopeless cause, I he news from Mississippi is all ofthe most cheering character. In Tennessee, after the withdrawal of four candi dates on the Van Duron electoral ticket, and the fail ure of Mr. Polk to run Col. Johnson ofTlhc track, Gen. Jackson hat been constrained to throw himself into the arena of political strife! Tennessee is not, how- vcr, to be transferred ; she will not sacrifice her own honor and interest by a blind subserviency to, or deference fur, the predilections of her highly honored and veteran citizen. All partiei feel that she ii not to he iwayed by the wand of the magician, as is well evidenced hy the number of backings out on the electoral ticket. Fourth of July Celebrations. -The day appear! lo havo been more generally honored than on any prc-vinui year for a long period of lime. Numerous accounts hsve reached us, but it it nol in our power lo notice them in detail. At Zaneaville and Newark, the proceedings were far more imposing than we had at first understood. At Ihe latter place, 3000 lailiei were in attendance at the Whig eclehration, and lbs number uf men is estimated at 7000. The device! and motloei were curious and appropriate. There was a Log Cabin on the ground from the northern part of Ihe county, ai large ai life, being 12 feet wide and rising 20 feet in length mounted on wheeli 10 feet high, and drawn hy 2C fine oxen, one for each State. This splendid learn was driven by two of tin most vemerahle and respectablo Cltizent of Granville, dreised in the primitive tow frock of ihe olden lime. One of them, Mr. Roswell Graves, was a soldier of the revolution, and is rising 80 years of age. The devices and flags were almost without number. The description uf the procession at Zanesville, with its banners, mottoes and devices, occupies seve ral column! of Ihe llarrisonim. The Declaration nf Independence wai read by Gen. Goddard, after which Gen. Murphy, of Chiilicnthe, addressed Ihe multitude for two hours and a half, in a speech of great power. Mr. Corwin arrived from Newark, and closed the public performances in one of his most eloquent appeals; eliciting burst! of applause from the lm- mense concourse. It is estimated that al least 12,000 were present. There were rising of 13.000 pounds of provisions, of different kinds, cnniumid al the Barbecue. SUB-TREASURY WORKINGS!

We have received from the writer, a copy of a letter d dressed to the members of the "Port Lawrence Township Hickory Club," of Ihe city of Toledo, by ndrew Palmer, Esq. It will be recollected by our readers thai Col, Palmer, sometime since, acting uu- er ihe influence of what he conceived to be a para mount duty his duty to his country, rather than hit party renounced his connexion with Ihe spoili party, and in an extremely well written address assigned is reasons for to doing. The communication from which we are about to make an extract, has been Irawn forth by repeated and unmanly attacks upon Col. P. f.om his former associates, in which Ihe Ohio Statesman hat participated, impeaching hit conduct nil impugning his motives. Hit enemies, if we mil-ake not, will repent having roused his energies. Wo can only find room for a small portion of the let ter to-day, but shall try hereafter lo lay the whole produclion before our readers. It will command, as it deserves, a widely extended circulation among all honest inquirer! after political truth: Extract f a letter In the members nf the Port Law rence Township Hickory Club," if the city of Toltdo, Gentlemen: On resigning, a few wecki linco. the onor you had conferred upon me, in an appointment to ihe Presidency of your Club; and in submitting, ns I then did, my reasons for to doing; I had hoped that no occasion would arise for any further defence of the motivet which actuated me in that meaiure. But, in this reasonable hope, I regret lo perceive that 1 wai mistaken. And yet, Ihe scandalous and disreputable attacks of some of the more reckless and unprincipled of your party, in the Manhattan Advertiser, Extra, of 33d nf May, and in tho Ohio Statesman nf 10th 13lh ol June, are ol such a nature that I certainly should not have thought of replying lo Ibem, had I not ob-t rved a disposition on the part of some of the more respectable and influential members of your club, and of the leading Administration papers in other parti nf tne oiaic, to give currency and credit to the falsehoods Ihey contain. Leaving, as I shall, ihe elm ran of havintr acted here tofore wiih the Whigs; and Ihe other absurd and unfounded charges contained in thoso publications, to ho reconciled wiih ihe general notoriety, and well known facts in ihe premises; and with an open and unqualified denial, on my part, which I now add: And It-av ng also, in Ihe same manner, end with the tame un qualified denial, the more serious and malignantcharge that 1 had been operated on by pecuniary eonsidera- uons, inrougii tne innueuce ol a "combination" on the Western Lakes and treat Eastern ihorourrhfares of commerce, lo be adjusted between I lie members nf ynur own club among the more oclive and influential t whom, are still lo be found my partner and associates in business, I shall proceed alonee to an examiua-linn of tho more grave, and in fact, the only one ofthe charges entitled lo a moment's consideration, I allude to the charge that I have changed my politics. i ins cuarge i also amiy. I have indeed abandoned the cause nf the office holders, and joined that of Ihe people. But mv politi cal principles havo never changed nor varied. 1 am now, what I ever have been; a Democrat of ihe true Jeffer6oniin school. And it wat only when I law that Ihe last principle of democracy bad been openly abandoned hy the parly in power, that 1 was willing to abandon Ihein. Do you want proof of this! lean furnish il iu pari from the testimony nf Mr. Van Bu-ren's confidential friends and advisers from his own organ and mouth piece.

Mr. Editor: I have observed statements in several of the Administration papers to ihe effect, that at several promiscuous political and other meetings recently held in this vicinity, the poliiisal party teat vote was taken, and lhat the result found the cause of Van Buren vastly popular, and lhat il ii rapidly uprooting the few Harrison men who dared to lift up their heads in 183G. But, sir, it it not necessary to say one word to any man in this eounty, by way of denying the truth or inese statements statements made by anonymous writers, who, thinking lhat the people will he gulled by ih'in, still make alalements that they dare not own, and place them before Ihe public without a signature, or any oilier meant of ferreting out Iheir auiliors. No ! Ihey know them to be false ! But it it necessary lhat Ihe people of this county be disabused of these calumnies, by a statement of fact! over Ihe signature of a citizen of this county who ean he found and il ready to answer any one who may deem it proper to question him touching their truth ; and for that reason, 1 do, for Ihe first time for the fast three yean, present myself lo the public in defence of Harrison and Reform, by giving you, and through you, the public, if you please, the actual result of one of those meetings, which took place ihe S7lh ultimo, in this township. And I will here remark, that I believe tha re. suit of this meeting, with regard to Ihe proportion of Harrison men, who were originally Jackson men, will fall but little short of the proportion in the aggregate of Harrison men in this county. At the meeting of the 27ih oil., Mr. Charles Wilgna ' aid that he wat not ashamed lo acknowledge that he wai originally a Jackson man, and lhat he did not deem it any disparagement to himself, or to General Jackson, thai he now supported General Harrison. And now, gentlemen, said Mr. W., I want to show to ihe people how many of ut present were originally Jackson men, and have come here in defence of Harrison and Reform ; and for that purpose, all such will please follow me and ho counted. The number Wat 00. Upon which the balance of the Harrison men were requested to form a line and be counted, to get the proportion who had changed, and that number wat 02.

1 too State ..VOLUME XXX. COLUMBUS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 15. 1840. NUMBER 64. FRIDAY, JULY 10, 1840. POLITICAL DISCUSSION. On Wednesday last, the cilizeng of this county had the hih gratification of listening to a discussion (if the leading measure and policy of the administration, between two of the must distinguished orators of Ohio. Mr. CoBwm. lh Whig candidate fur Gov. ernour, on the side of the People; and Mr. IIamib, a lain prominent member of Congress, talc inn up the defence of the Administration. Mr. Corwin opened tho debate, having been limited by arrangement to one hour and a half. Mr. llamer followed, having two hours allotted to him: Mr. Corwin closing in a speech of half an hour in length. This was the order of debate, and the allotted lime was most scrupulously observed by both gentlemen. The discussion took place in the market-house, and was listened to by a large audience with manifest signs of high gratification.It is not in our power to do justice to the opening speech of Mr. Corwin. It was one of those clear, logical, and manly appeals, which go home to the understanding and satisfy the judgment. With that caso and trace of elocution for which Mr. Corwin is so justly famed, he traced the course of the administration in its various windings, with a pencil of light. He made clear to tho apprehension, the effects of the changing experiments which had been tried, subjecting the country to unnatural influences, and interrupting the ordinary operations of the government, in the vain hope, as the result had shown, of producing consistency of result, where there was no wisdom in conception. Mr. Corwin, in this portion of his remarks, happily illustrated the character of our government and the nature of our institutions, defining the powers of the different branches and their relative connexion. Uncharged home upon the administra tion the present embarrassed condition of the country, and demonstrated his assumptions by familiar references to official documents. Ho dwelt upon the ex. pantion of the currency, induced by the orders of the President and his Secretary of the Treasury to the Drposilc Banks: He fixed upon the friends of the administration the great increase of the State Banks, jndcr the mistaken policy which followed the war on the United States Bank: He quoted the official do nunciations of ihe Sub-Treasury, both by Gen. Jack. son and Ihe official organ, when it was first broached in Congress, as being of a tendency dangerous in the extreme, subjecting the moneyed power of the country to the unlimited control of Ihe Executive: He then cited the final adoption of this very scheme, by the present Executive, on the high authority or twenty, three European governments, embracing in the number the most iron despotisms of Europe and Asia: Mr. Corwin dwelt upon the disregard manifested for the popular will by Mr. Van Buren, in Ins pertina- cious adherence to this measure, after it had been three times cast out by the representatlvea of Ihe people, as a thing unparalleled even in the history of monarchies, and aa showing the rapid concentration of all power in Ihe hands of the Executive, to the manifest danger of the State sovereignties and all independent legislation. He spoke of Ihe Bankrupt bill, and of the unnatural feature attempted to be engrafted upon it by Ihe friend of Ihe administration: And closed hit remarks by a hasty view of the Stand-in? Army project; leaving his friends nothing further to desire on the topics which his limited lime enabled him to grapple. - Mr. llamer rose, evidently embarrassed at the Herculean task he had undertaken that of defending the National Administration, against the numerous sins which his opponent had laid at its door. But, with the skill of a praciiced debater, he contrived toon to shift his ground, and instead of defending Ihe Administration, hit most anxious desire seemed lo be to ascertain what the opposition proposed to substitute fur the monstrous abuses which had been perpetrated ! Mr. II. abandoned the defence of the National Ad-niiuistialion, and turned his attention to the Stale Administration. He asked, and with great apparent sincerity, " what public act of Governor Shannon's is there that renders it proper lo turn him out1" This was unkind in the extreme, to our " Bank Reform" Governour, and well was it that lime was not allowed to reply. Had Mr. II. asked what public act of Ihe ' Governour'a rendered it proper to keep him in office, he would have found a torry array of negative answers. 'Tis true, there would have been the 400,000 dollars State loan, which he says he did get, but which Ihe "Democratic" Fund Commissioner says he did not get, and which every one understands he could mil have meddled with, without a violation of all the laws on the subject. There, too, it 11 Bank Iteform," which he had undertaken, but which had degenerated into the resurrection of two or three old expired charters flooding the country with their issues, coupled with post-notes of Ihe State Banks, mixed up with that choice specimen of " Bank Reform" financiering, the Binghampton Post Notes ! ! The descent from this point in Mr II. 's remarks, to the common slang of the day about Banks and corporations, was easy and natural. He admitted the adoption and encouragement of the State Bank system by the Administration, but charged its failure to the Opposition. He laid It had been ridiculed by ihe Whig! in Congress, and pronounced insufficient for Ihe purposes of Govern merit. Its failure had been predicted. Mr. Clay, he laid, had likened the Depusile Banks to a parcel of bark-canoet, lashed together with grape-vines and floating down stream, which would go lo pieces by the natural action of Ihe current. And, laid Mr, II., tho system has failed, and now Ihe Opposition are Ihe friends of Banks, and endeavor lo sustain them against the just indignaiinn of the public, for the want of faith to Iheir oreditort and the Government ! This is I fair specimen of the texture of Mr. Ha- mcr's arguments. Bui what better could ho dot-Have not ordert been issued from Washington to abandon the defence of the Administration, and make a charge along the wholu Whig line, with a view of putting the Harrison boys on thu defensive 1 We took no notes of w hat was said by cither uf the speakers, and will nut attempt to follow Ihein thruugh Ihe whole course of their remarks. We taw Ihe Editor of the Statesman, with paper in hand, taking notes, and we presume the public will be favored wiih the benefit of his labours. It it but justice, however, to Mr. llamer, to tiy, that, considering the awkward position which an Ingenuous mind mutt always find Itself in, from Ihe nature of Ihe questions before the public Ihe shift. lug ground Which Ihe Administration hat occupied, huving been on all sides of every prominent question, and from ihe kind of defence which the orders from Washington will permit of, ho made tho best of his material, manoeuvring his a!cnder hailaliuii with com mendable prudence and skill, keeping off at to long snot that it was hard to till whether he meant lo cn gage in the fight or not. His remarks were neither a reply, nor a defence, but a repetition of the old and exploded arguments about Dink and corporations. Let one instance suffice : He said the pecuniary difficulties of the country were chargeable to the Banks, which had increased to the fearful number of nine hundred, nny, nearly a thousand, flooding the country with their irredeemable issues, and oppressing the people, lowering and depressing the prices cf produce, hy their artificial contractions and expansions ! Ni w, admitting the argument, what are the facts ? Why, that in 1830, when this currency tinkering commenced, there were in Ihe whole Uniied States, but THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY BANKS. And by whom has this wonderful Increase been produced 1 By the friends of the Administration by State Legis latures purely of the Locofoco faith, from Maine to Mississippi ! The argument proves too much for the gentleman, and we leave the party lo reconcile it as best they may. It will need looking to. Wo cannot close this hasty notice, without pulling on record an avowal of Mr. Hamer's, deliberately made and repeated with much emphasis, which teemed to shock the assembly, as being too monstrous for utterance as revolutionary in its tendency, and as striking at Ihe very foundation of ihe social compact. It was Ibis : That Legislative bodies have Ihe right to repeal am. Laws! The courts, saiil Mr. H., may in-lorpose to prevent the assertion of this right ; hut it was an inherent right, and would be asserted : And if it could not be carried out in any other way, the Courti themselves would he reformed, and taught their duty to THE POPULAR WILL!! When we slate that Mr. H. is a lawyer of some eminence that Ihe District Court of the United Slatei it now in session in this city, and that most of the bar in attendance on its sittings, and many of the officers of Ihe Court were among his auditors, Ihe shock which this announcement produced may be imagined, but cannot be described. The short time allowed Mr. Corwin for a reply, was used to prodigious effect. He rolled back Ihe bold assumptions of this champion of jacobinism with Ihe strength of a giant, tearing the flimsy covering that had been spread over Ihe rolten carcass of Executive as-sumptions, into a thousand rags, end giving them to Ihe w inds. The eager attention of the multitude was oppressive ; and when he closed, in the midst of a headlong charge on the slender defences thrown up hy hit adversary, the vhont of approbation went up from Ihe assembly, indicative of the grateful feelings which prevailed. There are several points in the argument of Mr. llamer, which we intend hereafter to touch upon. We have said enough to give our readers a general view of the arguments of both gentlemen in the debate. We hope these discussions may be continued, and we trust that the convenience of Gov. Shannon will enable lii in to throw his weight into the scale, and meet the People's Candidate in open, full discussion, of " Bank Reform" and its kindred dogmas of that school in politics. "HARRISON THE SEDUCER." Hal we before doubted the debased condition of the administration press, the last Ohio Statesman would have convinced us that tliers was no lower depth lo which it could be sunk. In an article under ihe heading which we have quoted, the editor of that paper has revived an old exploded Blander uf 1823, in which General Harrison it represented as a seducer of a young and unprotected fi malt ! The charge it self require! not a moment's serious consideration, when the object of reviving it is considered. It de- rivet all ill importance from the audacious boldness with which it is brought forward, at the present time, lo prop the waning fortunes of a sinking party, whose longer claim to confidence and toleration seems to de pend on being enabled to reduce to iheir own debased standard, those who stand between them and Ihe ob. jecls of their wicked ambition. The story here revived was trumped up in 1825, to aniwer a political purpose, to defeat, if our recollec tion lervet us aright, Ihe election of Gen. Harrison lo Ihe Senate of the United Slates. It failed of hi ob ject then, for nobody believed it none gavs it heed, and it died away amongst those most interested, hit own neighbours and townsmen, to be brought forward now, for the same unholy and infamous object which prompted its coinage then, by (lie editor of a paper challenging at the hands of hit fcllowi the common decencies of life, ond claiming fur himself and his family the piolection of those lawt which society throws around the domestio hearth! Language it too cold to give utterance to ihe detestation and horrour which every honorable mind must feel at such low depravity at it here manifested. It is true, tho young lady whose disgrace is again blazoned to the world, was seduced but nobody gave credence to ihe ttory which implicated the honor of Gen. Hani-son. It is true thai the name of the brother of the young lady was affixed to the published card, in order lo give body lo a slander before the public, which had been secretly used to effect Gen. H.'t destruction but nn ono tuspected young Bruwcr of either having wrillon or devisod Ihe foul publication; he was seldom in a condition lo do either. It passed away then as a wicked and malicious slander, to be revived now to serve the leaders of a parly, who, to usa the language applied lo another set of men by the lamented Clinton, "would rather reign in hell, than serve in heaven." Wa leave our opponenta Ihe use of such weapons, and bid them welcome lo the poor advantage which Ihey will derivo from traducing ihe good and virtuous, the noble and brave of the land. Wa have higher aims in view than to dispute with them Ihe palm of victory in tuch an ignoble crusade, when success would be a moral death, and defeat, banishment from ihe pale of decent society. The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Patriot writes "I can assure you, and I would not do so hut from personal knowledge, that Ihe friend) of Mr. Van Buren have given up all hope of his election. I care not a fig for iheir talk I speak of iheir real feelings and opinions, They have given him up, and the wailcrt on Providence are sedulously wooing the opposition," J7" The Crop.

TIIK $100,000 STATE LOAN. Much has been said by the Governour'l friends about Ihe part hich he took in procuring the recent oan In New-York. The Governour himself has turn ed Dlovlan, and if he has not been most shamefully belied, has boasted in public of the pari he took in tho negoiiaiion claiming that it was through his In-slrumentalityalonetliat the loan was perfected, and thai lie could have borrowed much more money with which lo prosecute the public improvements, if Gen, Mao cracken had not written letter! to New-York, throw ing obstarles in the way and seriously afTccting the credit of the State. These stories have been often repealed, and have spread over lbs whole State, sometimes assuming one form, and sometimes ano ther one party asserting that Ihe Governour has the letters, and another that Mr. Commissioner Lake has them; all claiming that they were monstrous, and fully sustaining the charges that have been made against the resigning Fund Commissioners. The object of these slanders could not be mistaken. Wo therefore applied lo the proper source, and have obtained copies of two letters, being the only letters which Gen. Maccrackcn hat written on the subject, which letters are considered public documents, and may bo found on filo in the Fund Commissioners' Office, in this city: Fund Commissiojiicrs' OrricE,7 Lancaster, April 20A, 1810. i Messrs, Babino, Buothkks & Co.

Last evening, the Lncufocns held boisterous meeting In this ssine Conrt-llouse, would ask Mr. PulT, the Marshall, whether the carpelt were taken up for the occasion, or whether they were kept down because "several gentlemen nf distinction' were lo address the meeting! If the latter, I hope Ihe Marshal will lose no lime in running a parallel between the two rases, that of refusing it lo the Whigs, ind letting it lo Ihe Locos, nnd make ihe result known for the benefit of an inquiring public, BOUNDARY LINE i"U.

We find in the Somerset Post, Perry county, of the 3d ins!,, a letter lo Ihe Editor from Isaac Dbi.ono, Esq., Post-Master at Rehoboth, giving the reasons why lie would not serve as onn of Amos Kendall's se cret conimiltco fur obtaining subscribers lo the Extra Globe, On receiving cunning Ainos't teller, where- n ho promises that " the true-hearted men who may aid him in reaching tho minds of an honest people, Juill have no cause to repent their exertions," Mr, Dc-ong handed the prospectus enclosed to a Dr. Jack- ion, a Van Huron man, and a personal friend of Mr. D. s. rim worthy Doctor undertook to act as agent for honest Amos, and wrote an abusivo letter, impeaching tho Post-Master's conduct. Tho loiter was lost in the street, with five dollar! enclosed, and subsequently fell into Ihe Post-Master's hands. The money was returned, but the letter h is been published, as a specimen of the secret means now using lo overawe the public mind. Mr. Delong very properly tells hem all to go to the bugs, and he will " trust to Ihe pa triotism of his countrymen," to restore .Ihings to order, so that " liberty, manly dignity, confidence and prosperity, will again be brought back to our American paradise, by the great, tho good, the wise, the bravo Harrisox ! ' AURORA AUSTRALIA! In Mississippi, Gen, Quitman, Van Buren electoral candidate, withdrew, and Col. Claiborne declined fill ing tho place ho vacated. Mr. Chapman Levy, another candidate for elector, hat now withdrawn equivalent lo three refusals to labor in a hopeless cause, I he news from Mississippi is all ofthe most cheering character. In Tennessee, after the withdrawal of four candi dates on the Van Duron electoral ticket, and the fail ure of Mr. Polk to run Col. Johnson ofTlhc track, Gen. Jackson hat been constrained to throw himself into the arena of political strife! Tennessee is not, how- vcr, to be transferred ; she will not sacrifice her own honor and interest by a blind subserviency to, or deference fur, the predilections of her highly honored and veteran citizen. All partiei feel that she ii not to he iwayed by the wand of the magician, as is well evidenced hy the number of backings out on the electoral ticket. Fourth of July Celebrations. -The day appear! lo havo been more generally honored than on any prc-vinui year for a long period of lime. Numerous accounts hsve reached us, but it it nol in our power lo notice them in detail. At Zaneaville and Newark, the proceedings were far more imposing than we had at first understood. At Ihe latter place, 3000 lailiei were in attendance at the Whig eclehration, and lbs number uf men is estimated at 7000. The device! and motloei were curious and appropriate. There was a Log Cabin on the ground from the northern part of Ihe county, ai large ai life, being 12 feet wide and rising 20 feet in length mounted on wheeli 10 feet high, and drawn hy 2C fine oxen, one for each State. This splendid learn was driven by two of tin most vemerahle and respectablo Cltizent of Granville, dreised in the primitive tow frock of ihe olden lime. One of them, Mr. Roswell Graves, was a soldier of the revolution, and is rising 80 years of age. The devices and flags were almost without number. The description uf the procession at Zanesville, with its banners, mottoes and devices, occupies seve ral column! of Ihe llarrisonim. The Declaration nf Independence wai read by Gen. Goddard, after which Gen. Murphy, of Chiilicnthe, addressed Ihe multitude for two hours and a half, in a speech of great power. Mr. Corwin arrived from Newark, and closed the public performances in one of his most eloquent appeals; eliciting burst! of applause from the lm- mense concourse. It is estimated that al least 12,000 were present. There were rising of 13.000 pounds of provisions, of different kinds, cnniumid al the Barbecue. SUB-TREASURY WORKINGS!

We have received from the writer, a copy of a letter d dressed to the members of the "Port Lawrence Township Hickory Club," of Ihe city of Toledo, by ndrew Palmer, Esq. It will be recollected by our readers thai Col, Palmer, sometime since, acting uu- er ihe influence of what he conceived to be a para mount duty his duty to his country, rather than hit party renounced his connexion with Ihe spoili party, and in an extremely well written address assigned is reasons for to doing. The communication from which we are about to make an extract, has been Irawn forth by repeated and unmanly attacks upon Col. P. f.om his former associates, in which Ihe Ohio Statesman hat participated, impeaching hit conduct nil impugning his motives. Hit enemies, if we mil-ake not, will repent having roused his energies. Wo can only find room for a small portion of the let ter to-day, but shall try hereafter lo lay the whole produclion before our readers. It will command, as it deserves, a widely extended circulation among all honest inquirer! after political truth: Extract f a letter In the members nf the Port Law rence Township Hickory Club," if the city of Toltdo, Gentlemen: On resigning, a few wecki linco. the onor you had conferred upon me, in an appointment to ihe Presidency of your Club; and in submitting, ns I then did, my reasons for to doing; I had hoped that no occasion would arise for any further defence of the motivet which actuated me in that meaiure. But, in this reasonable hope, I regret lo perceive that 1 wai mistaken. And yet, Ihe scandalous and disreputable attacks of some of the more reckless and unprincipled of your party, in the Manhattan Advertiser, Extra, of 33d nf May, and in tho Ohio Statesman nf 10th 13lh ol June, are ol such a nature that I certainly should not have thought of replying lo Ibem, had I not ob-t rved a disposition on the part of some of the more respectable and influential members of your club, and of the leading Administration papers in other parti nf tne oiaic, to give currency and credit to the falsehoods Ihey contain. Leaving, as I shall, ihe elm ran of havintr acted here tofore wiih the Whigs; and Ihe other absurd and unfounded charges contained in thoso publications, to ho reconciled wiih ihe general notoriety, and well known facts in ihe premises; and with an open and unqualified denial, on my part, which I now add: And It-av ng also, in Ihe same manner, end with the tame un qualified denial, the more serious and malignantcharge that 1 had been operated on by pecuniary eonsidera- uons, inrougii tne innueuce ol a "combination" on the Western Lakes and treat Eastern ihorourrhfares of commerce, lo be adjusted between I lie members nf ynur own club among the more oclive and influential t whom, are still lo be found my partner and associates in business, I shall proceed alonee to an examiua-linn of tho more grave, and in fact, the only one ofthe charges entitled lo a moment's consideration, I allude to the charge that I have changed my politics. i ins cuarge i also amiy. I have indeed abandoned the cause nf the office holders, and joined that of Ihe people. But mv politi cal principles havo never changed nor varied. 1 am now, what I ever have been; a Democrat of ihe true Jeffer6oniin school. And it wat only when I law that Ihe last principle of democracy bad been openly abandoned hy the parly in power, that 1 was willing to abandon Ihein. Do you want proof of this! lean furnish il iu pari from the testimony nf Mr. Van Bu-ren's confidential friends and advisers from his own organ and mouth piece. Here It is: "The U.LY EXISTING PARTY on which hi Mr. Van BurenI could rply tor support in such A position, his refusal lo repeal Ihe specie circular, consisted or a SMALL SECTION or the Democratic paktv in the city or New York, which k.a.aumerlA DISTINCT ORGANIZATION on Ihe ground of honility m ihe monopoly of the hanking system, and Ihe fraudulent fallacy of fcaner monev IN.iBKiricANT in number, lliingh rowerful in tat. enr, enthusiasm, and stern, Irue, RADICAL, Democ racyan ohjitct ol persecution to all the other psrtiei, and known throughout the country at large only aa the object of a vague terror and random execration, under ihe uncouili and contemptuous designation of lha l.lll'll 1'lll'IIS e " Hit, in truth, the principles or this i itti. knot or SINCERE democratic REFORMERS WERE THOSE ALWAYS CHERISHED BV Mr. Van BuREN, AND TO WHICH II E HAD NEVER BEEN UNPAlTlirUL, throughout Ihe whole course of his political life being noihing more nor less than those of a pure and arnest democracy, ILLUMINATED bv Ihe liohl of the miunmist principles of political economy." mi-ee ueciarntioni are taken Irom the April and May numbers, for Ihe prerent year, nf the Democratic Review, published at Washington, under the immn. diate eye ofthe President. But while Mr. Van Buren wai thus hugging lo hit bosom this "liltlo knot" of "sineer democratic re- lormers," Ihe Loco rocos of Ihe city of New York. and Hcling upon the principle! they inculcated, the rr democracy of Ihe country, and I among the rest, were simple enougn 10 ueiieve that he had "no feelings in common" with that party. And accordingly, in rveij pan in mo union, me Itiendsol Ihe Adminis- tptton, were open and determined in their denunciations of Ilia Loco Foco parly and doctrines. This, Ihe following resolution, passed at a large and respectable meeting of the friends of Mr. Van Buren, at Albany, in lb'37, atjthn very time when, it now appears, iiuv uiiiiuiv aniuiict, inoit niace. will c earlv show: " Resolved, That no portion of Ihe Republicans of ;-' j . ..-, w .lusi, ciiiciiuin any leenogs in common w ith the distinctive views of thai faction. originating in the city of Now York, KNOWN AS I nr.

I believed in the correctness of the positions taken in Ihe shove reso'ution, at lha lima it was adopted umirTo i-i uiFir correciness now. i need not men ask who it is that has chsmred. The answer is alrea. dy given in the extract I have cited from the last num ber of Ihe Dcmocraiio Review. The following lerions charge il made in the Talla- nsaen isiar ni ine luin ultimo, against agents or the Government in Florida. A strict investigation of the facts of the case is imperiously demanded at the hands ni tne proper department it Washington : " A few weeiti since a cargo of bacon wns pur- cnasen in iianimore, on bahall or Uuvernment, nnd shipped in the brig Benjamin, Csplain , and cariied lo Cedar Keys, where it was condemned hy iho United Slates atrents. and ordered round to Si. Marks. I (ere it was ordered lo be sold, without soy notice having hern given of Ihe intended sale .a mock auction wai got up in St. Marks, al 9 o'clock at night, at which il is understood, only three persona attended viz; the mock aue'ioneer, and two individuals who were clerks in Me Uuarter Master s department, or Com missary's department. The bacon w as sidd, and these two clerks became the purchasers, at three-fourths of a cent per pound ! Il was Immediately delivered, and removed thai night from St, Marks. They were Iho next day offered 1700 for their bargain, which they refused ihey demanded $5,000 ! Two or Ihree days subsequently, and within the past week, this same bacon is understood lo have been purchased, for the UB'i of the Iruopt In the service of Ihe Territory, at II cents per pound, and II pronounced to be In excellent order. Now, in reference to this transaction, who can doubt Ihe fulluwing facts: 1st. That ii was condemned that It might bo sold. and 8J. That it wat sold that somebody might become lha purchaser, and 3.1. That illogcihri it was a very greasy affair. EDITOR'S CORRESPONDENCE. Clark's Mills, Lawrence county , O., July 4, 1810. Mr. Editor: I have observed statements in several of the Administration papers to ihe effect, that at several promiscuous political and other meetings recently held in this vicinity, the poliiisal party teat vote was taken, and lhat the result found the cause of Van Buren vastly popular, and lhat il ii rapidly uprooting the few Harrison men who dared to lift up their heads in 183G. But, sir, it it not necessary to say one word to any man in this eounty, by way of denying the truth or inese statements statements made by anonymous writers, who, thinking lhat the people will he gulled by ih'in, still make alalements that they dare not own, and place them before Ihe public without a signature, or any oilier meant of ferreting out Iheir auiliors. No ! Ihey know them to be false ! But it it necessary lhat Ihe people of this county be disabused of these calumnies, by a statement of fact! over Ihe signature of a citizen of this county who ean he found and il ready to answer any one who may deem it proper to question him touching their truth ; and for that reason, 1 do, for Ihe first time for the fast three yean, present myself lo the public in defence of Harrison and Reform, by giving you, and through you, the public, if you please, the actual result of one of those meetings, which took place ihe S7lh ultimo, in this township. And I will here remark, that I believe tha re. suit of this meeting, with regard to Ihe proportion of Harrison men, who were originally Jackson men, will fall but little short of the proportion in the aggregate of Harrison men in this county. At the meeting of the 27ih oil., Mr. Charles Wilgna ' aid that he wat not ashamed lo acknowledge that he wai originally a Jackson man, and lhat he did not deem it any disparagement to himself, or to General Jackson, thai he now supported General Harrison. And now, gentlemen, said Mr. W., I want to show to ihe people how many of ut present were originally Jackson men, and have come here in defence of Harrison and Reform ; and for that purpose, all such will please follow me and ho counted. The number Wat 00. Upon which the balance of the Harrison men were requested to form a line and be counted, to get the proportion who had changed, and that number wat 02. Total number of Harrison men nrntent. 122. The number of Van Buren men were not counted, at ii wa iiiougni 10 loriure mem any turther would ba cruel ; and at there wat no one of them personally in- teresieo in van uuren t tucctsi, by beingoffice-holders, nothing was publicly said in his behalf. At my otijeci, at tuts time, wai merely to show the relative proportion of original Jackson men who are now the supporters of Harrison in this vicinity, I will close, and wail till I can withhold my pen no longer uiu cAjjuBiug mo une nuuse, wuen I will address you dm. Very respectfully, yonrt, HAMMOND HOWE. Mercer County, Inly 4, 1840. Mr. Editor-I see in Ihe Statesman nf June anil,. a letter from Si. Marys, denying lhat corn had beeu sntu in mercer county, at Constable's tale, at 1 J cent! pr, uuBiiei. uusiness caning me through the county, and happening in the neighborhood where the corn wai laid to have been lold, I took the paim to make some inquiry about it. I learned from Jamei T. Heath, who was at the lale, that 300 bushels were sold for g3,f0. I afterwards saw John Tomilson, tho Constable, and he gave me the ssme information that I saw in Ihe Journal, lhat ihe 200 bushels sold fur $$,35 and a Locofoco Sub-Treasury man bought Ihe corn. I would say now, to Mr. "Democrat," that he naa oeiter be sure he Is right before he sends any more statement! t the Statesman. 1 intend to get a few more facta on this subject before I leive the county; and also. If possible, lo find out "Democrat." Then you may expect to bear from me again. Some tay "Democrat" it no other than Ihe Deputy Mar- snai or mercer county. A TRAVELLER. The editors of lha Tazewell.
